gateway_enable="YES"
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="open"

thing?  I would love to find out, help anyone?

Subject: IPFW rules, Internet


Hello there,

I've got a DHCP cable connection and have compiled the IPFIREWALL option
into
my kernel. There now is a module ipfw, and it is loaded at startup. When
loaded, all
connections are not working, neither is ping. I know its the rule set.
What I'd like to
know is, what are the main config files to edit to allow rules to access
the web, irc,
ping, etc. and how to enable/disable ipfw on the run.

Advice is appreciated.
Nick Lozinsky
